Chris Jericho opens up the WWE SmackDown taping for this week. He comes out to a huge pop from the Liverpool audience. It’s time for the “Highlight Reel” segment. Jericho’s guests, Triple H and Stephanie McMahon, make their way out to the ring. The fans break out in a “Where’s Our Network?!” chant, much like at Monday’s RAW, which was also taped in Liverpool, England.
– Vince McMahon came out of nowhere and cut a promo at the top of the stage. He came out after some more “Where’s Our Network?!” chants broke out. He insulted the fans in attendance, saying that Liverpool sounds like a “skin disease.” This was apparently a dark segment that won’t air as part of the broadcast this Friday night.
Bray Wyatt def. Sin Cara in what was basically a brief squash match. Wyatt dominated from bell-to-bell, picking up the win with his “Sister Abigail” finisher for the 1-2-3. After the match, Wyatt cut a promo, which prompted Dean Ambrose to come out. Wyatt fled the scene before Ambrose could get to him. The segment ended with Wyatt at the top of the stage laughing at Ambrose.
– Goldust and Stardust def. Adam Rose and The Bunny in tag-team action. This was said to be a decent match, but mostly a comedy bout. They teased more issues between Rose and The Bunny.
– Ryback vs. Kane is announced for a singles match later on in the show.
– Dolph Ziggler def. Tyson Kidd and Cesaro in an elimination match to retain the WWE Intercontinental Championship. This was said to be an outstanding match that the crowd was heavily into. Kidd eliminated Cesaro first. Ziggler then beat Kidd to retain.
– Natalya def. Layla in Divas action. This was said to be a pretty typical Divas match, which Nattie won by way of submission after locking Layla in the Sharpshooter.
– Ryback def. Kane via Disqualification in the main event of the show. The Authority was sitting at ringside during this match. The finish saw Kane blast Ryback with a chair, which resulted in Ryback winning via DQ. After the match, Ryback was brought in the ring for a beatdown, but ended up getting the upper hand in the action, blasting Kane with a Shellshock to close the show
